Antimicrobial Resistance, Virulence, and Genetic Lineages of Staphylococci from Horses Destined for Human Consumption: High Detection of <i>S. aureus</i> Isolates of Lineage ST1640 and Those Carrying the <i>lukPQ</i> Gene

Antimicrobial Resistance, Virulence, and Genetic Lineages of Staphylococci from Horses Destined for Human Consumption: High Detection of <i>S. aureus</i> Isolates of Lineage ST1640 and Those Carrying the <i>lukPQ</i> Gene

This work aimed to determine the frequency and diversity of <i>Staphylococcus</i> species carriage in horses intended for human consumption, as well as their resistance and virulence determinants. Eighty samples (30 nasal; 50 faecal) were recovered from 73 healthy horses in a Spanish sla...
